Just got yet another 5-person group and I was the one person who couldn't get into the instance. So I had to break group. And now wait the 15 minutes for the cooldown.

Thank you Zos for being unable to fix your group finder for this long and thanks even more for punishing me for your failure. And all the other problems with the tool.

    I couldn't agree more. The punishment would be nice in a working environment. However, with the current state of group finder that just is not the case. More often than not I have been put into a group for some of the harder dungeons (ICP, WGT, CoA, etc.), and literally as I port into the dungeon the leader has disbanded the group. He didn't leave himself, he literally DISBANDED. So I wait to get removed from the area, hit yet another loading screen, and get punished by ZoS with a cooldown for activity finder; NICE! Makes me want to keep subbing ;)

    It has been more than a month (way more) since I have been able to find a group using group finder. I've tried on my healer and tank and have waited sometimes more than an hour and it never happens. Three of us looking for a 4th we can eventually find a 4th but more often than not one of our three is booted. I'm assuming the group finder sees two groups of three looking for a 4th and just randomly kicks one from each group and sticks the remaining together. Only thing that makes any sense.

    If we do a group of four and use the random dungeon selection way more than half the time we would get either ICP or WGT and someone always wants to drop. Right now we just say what the hell we gotta wait fifteen minutes anyway lets see how far we get. Sometimes we get through other times we wipe a couple of times and decide to move on. So maybe the powers that be have put the 15 minute wait in place to give us more incentive to try those dungeons.

    Now along with ICP or WGT we get the two new dungeons way more than what a random process should consistantly produce. Sure you can get in a streak where nothing but those really tough ones show up but eventually it should swing back the other way and even up.

    If I were paranoid or a conspiracy nut I would think Zos is actively pushing these expansion pack dungeons on us in a ploy to conquer the world or at the very least make us buy more mounts.
    and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."

    Why do you need a group finder when you can buy a new costume or pet to follow you around? That's where the money is at!!!!!
